Tha CGimviiltcG on Resolution!; having Tcturaed, they wero called upon for their report) when tho foliuwia resolve were road by Mr. Mulim and c-mhusiasUcally ted by the Convention ; iiilop RE30LCT10XS Resolved, That we, the representatives of the People of Cammua County, in convention assembled, duly appreciating tne many blessings resulting rom the vr iso and benignant institutions established by our fathers, do hereby declare our abiding confidence in a Republican form of Government, and our fixed and unal terable devotion to the Constitution and the union under which vre live. Resolved, That the will of the majority, "when fairly and legally expressed, should always be respected and obeyed, and when wrongs or grievances exist, of which there is just cause of complaint, they should be settled and redressed through the peace- lul ana potent instrumentality of the ballot-box, and at all times in a manner subordinate to, and in accordance with, the mode presenoed by the Constitution and laws of our country. Resolved, therefore, That in the hostile attitude and armed resistance made and exhibited by a portion of the Southern people, under the leadership of bad men, against the legal and constitutional au thorities of the United States, we behold a Rebellion such as has never before dis graced any age or country. Causeless, iniquitous, and wicked -in its very incep tion, and aiming at the destruction of the best and freest Government on earth, it is to be alike deplored and condemned, not only by the good and tho patriotic in our land, but by the down-trodden millions of foreign nations, who have so anxiously looked to us as tliok- guide and their ex ample. V Resolved, That we humbly conceive it to bo the duty of Government to assert and vindicate the supremacy of the Union and the Constitution, and to crush this infamous llebeliion, and punish its guilty A authors, at whatever cost of blood and 4 treasure ; and we pledge ourselves to sus tain any and every lawful measure, how ever stringent, which may be adopted for the attainment of these great objects. Resolved, That in Abu A ham Lixcolx, and his able, honest, and patriotic cab inet, we have the most unbounded confi dence ; they are emphatically "the right men in the right place," and while they are eminently entitled to our thanks and gratitude for their noble efforts in behalf of our glorious Union, and their wise, ju dicious, and economical administration of all our national affairs, in this the most trying period of our country's history, they are afco deserving of the hearty sup port and co operation of all. loyal men, until llebeliion is crushed, and Treason punished, and the authority of the Feder al. Government restored to every inch of its soil. Resolved, That no language is adequate to express the contempt we feel for those miserable creatures, in the loyal states, who, sympathizing with Treason and Re bellion of the South, have no kind words of encouragement for our Union soldiers, but are ever ready falsely aud unjustly to denounce tho war as being "unconstitu tional," and waged only for the purposes of "abolitionism" and ''negro equality." llecreant to their duty as American citi zens, and ungrateful to the Government which protects them, these characters will neither fchoulder a musket in behalf cf the Union, nor yet are they willing to be taxed to pay the gallant spirits icho fiylit for tltcm. Treason in the South is bad enough, but sympathy for it in the North is infamous, and the individual who entertains it docs r.ot deserve to be ranked with the tories of the Revolution. Resolved, That we hereby express our sincere thanks to that class of Senators and Representatives in our National Con gress, who, by their able efforts and timely legislation, have so nobly strengthened the hands of the President, and showed themselves the true friends of the Nation al Government in thi3 the hour of its peril. Resolved, That the able cud efficient manner in which the administration of Governor Andrew f. Crivrix has been conducted entitles him to the highest praise, and especially do we refer with satisfaction and pride fo that loyalty arid and patriotism, that zeal and activity, and that goodness of heart which he has so - IT 1 1 1 i T .1 tsigua.jy uirp!aycu toward. tne gallant sons ot the old Keystone, who, under his auspices, were armed ami eqn:nped and left their homes to do, and sutler, arid die in behalf of the Union. Rcxolvcd, That it is a source of just pride that' we are citizens of a Common wealth whieh has already furnished more than a hundred thousand men to do battle for the dignity and unity of our great Republic, and which w;?s amongst the very first to respond to the patriotic call of the President when our National Cap ital was in danger. Pennsylvania indeed, has done nobly. She has given freely of her treasure and of her blood, and the bones of her sons will whiten inacv a nara-iouans battle-Held. Xnese bo the jewels which she has laid upon the altar or our common country, and they are alike creditable to her name and to her honor.

Resolved, That Louis W. Hall is hereby declared the unanimous choice of thi3 Convention for the Senatorial nomi nation, and that "William R.

A , 1 . . ui wie reci' iit movements, resulting in a week's hard fighting, on the Peninsula, is from the war correspondence of the Philadelphia Press : General M'Ciellan has at length accom plished the great scheme which engrossed all his attention for the past two weeks- tne transler ot his army, by a flank move- . .... i" to the south and smith nf U 4v..., twin uiLuuuu auutajLui inn n ona change of his base cf rations i source of supply from the Pamunkv to the Jataes river. Necessity compelled fh- change, and never in military history did an army more successfully aud effectually accomplish a manceuver ot so great mag- n:tude. Troops had to march with all their hn-.mo-p 1,1 rt v. along to meet the hourly wants of the journey ; the enemy had to be a hundred times Ueleafed as he pressed too violently upon tuc xeacrai war and hanks; sick and wounded were to bo cared for, and when a safe Arrival upon the James river was secured, supplies had to be provided there with a profusion once in vogue at "White House. It was all done, and well done. The movement was made; the enemy beaten back ; the supplies secured ; the sick and wounded ssnt to hospitals, and all completed in the short space of four days. An army correspondent cf the New York Tribune, in summing up the doings of the week of battles, says Those persons who are unfamiliar with military movements will perhaps be a lit tle puzzled to reconcile the fact of our repulsing the rebels so frequently, so uni versally, with the fact that our army con tinues us retreat alter every contest, and The Commanding General, finding his brave and heroic army on the field before Richmond overborne by the pure force of numbers, the rebels constantly pouring in hordes of reinforcements, 4inding his right flank turned, and being satTsfied that it would be difficult, if not impossible to hold his position, he very naturally determined to chance it to on wWV could be more easily defended. He deci ded upon the point now occupied by his army (where he can have the co-operation of the gunboats) and having so decided, the next thing to be done was to march his army to the point desired, in good order. w The rebels followed and attacked him as a matter of course. But as often as they attacked the loyal troops repulsed them, not without considerable loss, how ever, in order to gain his point, viz, to take up the position he desired cn the James river in order, without stampeding or panic in his ranks, after each repulse of the rebels, he was obliged to hurry on to his destination with tho greatest prac tical speed, to do which he was compelled to leave -ne severely wounded on the field. The march or retreat or whatever else you choose to call it, is regarded here as a re markably successful one, and the present position of the army as entirely sale from rebel attack. . l3 President Lincoln sent into Con gress on Monday, the draft uf a bill to compensate any State which may abolish slavery within its limits, the passage ol which, substantially as presented, he ear nestly recommends. JCRumcr has it that Congress will, in view of the scarcity of specie, authorize the issue of S2J notes.

The Convention with a liberality peculiar to it sat with open doors, aud thus presented an opportunity to all conducting them selves with propriety to witness its pro ceedings. Ve, m common with others, availed ourself of this r.rlvil r.r.,1 therefore in speaking as we have done, we 4- O ' have only given utterance to what we saw and what we know. The County Ticket nominated was ju diciously and fairly distributed, and is unquestionably one of the best that was ever presented for the suffrages of a free ly due (he People of that locality, and in him we have a man whose worth and qualifications are unquestioned and un- juestionable. Enjoying enlarged expe- rieuce, and having the finest social, moral and business habits, he has the confidence of the public in an unlimited degree. The People of Cambria County have already honored him, and we are sure they will delight to do so again. For the office of Prothonotary, the Convention nominated Col. "William K Carr, of "Wilmore, a gentleman who is well and. most favorably known through out the County. The office for which he is a candidate is one of vast and varied responsibilities and duties, and in it the People have a peculiar interest. To fill it properly, it requires an incumbent pos sessing that clerical aptitude, accommoda ting disposition, and discipline of habits which so characteristically pertain to our nominee. Tlie Colonel has never sought official distinction, but now that he is nominated for a position for which he is so thoroughly qualified, the People will do well to elect him. The nomination for District Attorney, which war bestowed upon John II. Fish er, Esq.oih Johnstown, could not have fallen upon one more worthy, nor upon one whoso selection would have been balled with more satisfaction and pleasure. Although young in the practice of the law, he has nevertheless earned for him Felf an enviable position amongst the members of the Bar of this county. Fresh from the ranks of the people, and combi- liing hone ty and integrity with ability, 1 ho will, if elected, dischargo the duties of his position with an eye only to the re quirements of Justice. The office is one of tho gravest importance; tho man U qualified for it; ftnd -we truit be may bo elected. John Elder, of Chest Township, U our noisi&ee for the office of County Com- misfctouer. The post U one of unspeak tiblo iniporteueo to the taxpayers of our county, and in selecting Mr. Eldeh a3 one qualified for it, the Convention acted both wisely and well. It lias too often hap- peneu that thi3 olhco has been under the !?f tro1 f M and nothing could better remedy this evil than by giving Mr. Elder a seat in its Board, where his good common sense and honesty of purpose would always be on tho sido of Economy and Reform. "Well known to the people of our county, they appreciate his many virtues, and will cor- iyuny jieia uim incir vote ana inuuencc. The Convention displayed its good senso and judgment also in the nomination of William Blkkstresser, of Susque- hanna Township, as Poor House Director. This is another office of great interest to the taxpayer, and 3Ir.

In referring to the proceedings of our late Countv Convent Tribune of last week spoke as follows in , regard to the State Seuatorslup : "The action of the Convention in regard to the State Senatorship was not contemulated by many members of the Convention. Mr. Hall was not kuovn to the Conven tion as a candidate desiring the Senator- ship, and his nomination was, therefore, an entireiy gratuitous compliment, for which he had made no personal effort nor au thorized any friend to ask. We do not know whether he would be a candidate, even it he fails in the Congressional con test ; but since our Convention has taken the responsibility of presenting his name, we trust, after a little reflection, he will drop the latter and announce himself as a candidate for Senator. His course in the Senate, during the last three years, gave general satisfaction to the people of his Dis trict, and we believe it tr- be the earnest desire of his party friends to re-elect him to that body. Such, at least, is the feel-1 ing in Cambria county, as fatrong!y eviuced in the unsought action of her Convention and we notice that he is being urged in Clearfield for the nomination." 1'crsonal. We dislike personalities of any charac- ter, but we would be doingnnjustice to our feelings did we not, in this public manner, return our thanks to the Con vention which jnet here on the 7th inst. for its unanimous declaration in our behalf. We trust that the honor was as well deserved as it was intended. Whether we are successful at the Congressional Conference and the Polls of the District, or not, the endorsement given us by so respectable a body as our Convention will always be remembered s.s one of the proudest events of our life. Ilotv is It I It is not often that we find anything in the columns of the Democrat & Sentinel that we think worth while to reproduce in these columns. To-day, however, wo make a choice extract from that journal, uuder date of July 2, and wo trust that our frieuda may read it and then reflect and pander over it.

The Democrat d Sentinel is the only ''Democratic" paper published in this county at this time, and being tho recog nized organ of that ancient organization, it is supposed to speak the sentiments and convictions of the candidates whose names it flaunts, at its mast-head. Prominent amongst these are the names of R. L. Johnston and C. L. Pershing, Esquires, both of whom, if elected, will le called upon during the coming session to vote for a United States Senator. Tn t'.P nainc of the People, therefore, who are interested in this question, and who wish to know where candidates stand at this peculiar juncture, we ask these gentlemen whether or not they eu4grse the senti ments contained iu the aVcve extract ? Jou a short, gentlemen, accept this 33 an explanatory plank of your woudcr- fully equivocal-platform,, or is it only a dose which 30U are compelled to swallow at the instance of "fellow Dnnmrait" who are all the time berating and vilify ing the Administration, aud never have a word to say against the rebels ?

Not cno is left ia front, nor within several miles uf our lines, and it is tvt prevailing opinion in the region of the war that they will eoon bo heard fromia some other quarter.

Our troops under Gen. Hatch, of Ran Va column, eutcre'd Culpepper on Saturday and drove out about lOU Rebel cavairV killing one and taking five. No Rebels in force were seen. A despatch from Nashville gives us the stirring news that Murfreesboro wa3 tukea by the Confedeiates, mostly Texan Ran gers under Col. Forest, on Saturday, "but were shelled out by our battery. There was 'desperate fighting. The Uth Michi gan regiment are reported captured. Brig. Gens. DufScld and Crittenden, of Indiana, are prisoners. An escaped prisoner reports that tlie first, second and fourth Georgia, first Ken tucky, the Texan Ra ngers, and seventeen hundred mounted infantrj, under com mand of Fou-st and Warner, six thousand Rebels in all, are advancing cn Nashville. Great excitement prevails. The best re sistance possible will be made, and if com pelled tojield, our forces will shell the city. A battery is iu position for this latter emergency. Considerable excitement exists in Lou isville in consequence of a rebel raid upon that city being threatened by Morgan's guerillas. Latest reports say that the rebels had reached Rough and Ready, nine miles south of Frankfort, at five P. M. on Sunday. The State archives aro being removed from the capitol. The Petersburg.

The rebel Gen. Humphrey Marshall has resigned his commission. Sr" Gen. Pope has issued an address to his command the Army of Virgin; in which he pertinently remarks : "I hear constantly of taking strung posi tions and holding them, of lines of retreat, and a basis of supplies. Let us discanl such ideas. The strongest position a sol dier should desire to occupy is one from which he can most easily advance against the enemy. Let us study the probable lines of retreat of our opponents, and leave our own to care for themselves. Let us look before us and not behind.
